The invention effect
The bilayer copper clad laminate that obtains according to the present invention, can effectively prevent the excellent results of the outer lead part fracture of circuit at the folding resistance that can be improved.
The specific embodiment
About the bilayer copper clad laminate that obtains by the present invention, at first be arranged in the vacuum chamber and by plasma treatment with the Kapton surface active after, utilize sputter to adhere to the single metal layer of the Ni of 10~30nm, Co, Cr or comprise in them for example NiCr layer (20%Cr) of the two or more alloy-layers that form, utilize sputter to form the copper layer of submicron order afterwards.
The copper layer that obtains like this owing to be to be used for the seed that the cathode copper layer that carries out later forms, therefore is called copper seed layer.
Then, use copper seed layer to carry out electroplating processes.Electroplating processes is undertaken by copper sulphate plating etc.Current density, electrolyte temperature when electroplating by regulating can at random be regulated thickness of coating.Thus, can obtain the bilayer copper clad laminate of Kapton and copper layer.Electroplating processes can be used the applicant's electroplate liquid (with reference to WO2006/080148) of exploitation in the past.The surface roughness of coating uses contactless surface roughness meter (Veeco corporate system) to measure, its result, and Ra is 0.01-0.04, Rt is that 0.14-1.0, Rz are 0.1-0.90.
Form the copper layer of submicron order by sputter before, can form the articulamentum (Tie Coat) that comprises NiCr by sputtering at the Kapton surface.The plasma treatment on Kapton surface and articulamentum are being effective means aspect the raising cementability.The present application comprises these processing.
As previously mentioned, the present invention includes and form the articulamentum that thin intermediate layer promptly comprises NiCr in order to increase bond strength, together with this intermediate layer at interior " bilayer copper clad laminate " that is called Kapton and copper layer.
As long as the Kapton that uses in the double-deck CCL material of the present invention can realize that the present invention then is not particularly limited, preferably using BPDA-PPD is Kapton.
More than 100 ℃ and the bilayer copper clad laminate that obtains utilizing sputter and electroplating processes on Kapton, to form the copper layer under the temperature below 175 ℃ heat-treat.Thus, can have by the folding resistance more than 150 times based on the folding resistance test determination of JIS C6471.
Described heat-treat condition does not then all have the folding resistance more than 150 times if be lower than 100 ℃ or the temperature above 175 ℃.Therefore, need heat-treat more than 100 ℃ and under the temperature below 175 ℃.
As described below based on the experimental condition that the folding resistance of JIS C6471 is tested.
Use R=0.38, load 500gf, bending angle: 135 ° ± 5 °, 175cpm (bending of the ratio that per minute is 175 times), L/S are the folding resistance test film of 1mm, will be up to the number of times till the fracture as folding resistance.
When making test film, crimping dry film on the bilayer copper clad laminate after the described heat treatment forms pattern with its exposure, carries out etch processes and the unwanted part of removing copper.And, remove dry film at last, on Kapton, form circuit.Use the test film of making like this.
This circuit forming method is the method for carrying out usually, also can carry out other method.The etching solution that the etching solution of copper layer uses following liquid to form usually.
